eclipse, eclipse-jdt and what else?

[Oliver Ruebenacker]

     Dear friends

  I have an existing project, which I used under Rawhide with Sun's
Java. After a clean install of F7, I am trying to get it to work with
F7's java.

  OK, I started a new workspace to test, and this is what happened:

  If I press Next, nothing happens. If I double-click "Java Project",
a dialog opens, saying an error occured, and that I should check the
error log. I have no idea where the error log might be.

  How do I proceed? Thanks!

     Take care
